When was the Last Time You Felt Demotivated?
Date: May 11, 2022 (Wednesday)
When one feels demotivated, everything seems so dull.
Life is not always about rainbows and butterflies. One day, things feel so fine and the next day, the storm comes. You don't know what are you going to embark on the next days of your life.
There are even times where you have that high motivation to set your goals, or even do the necessary actions to make them come true. You have the energy to make things work in your life. Everything seems so perfect.
Howbeit, there's also a time in your life where you feel like things are not going on your favor. It seems like the path is so scary to take. You're too tired to step out on your comfort zone and you don't know what to do in your life. It seems like you have nothing to do right in your life. When that happen, that's when you realize how demotivated you are in life.
What does it means to be demotivated?
Being demotivated means that one is less eager to do everything in life, be it in work, studies, or anything that once motivated him/her to do.
Being demotivated is something that we don't want to feel. It's something that we don't invite in our lives either, but I guess it's the one inviting themselves to enter in our lives in a snap. So we have no choice but to feel what it has in store for us.
My Kind of Demotivation
Last week has been a tough week for me. I had a lot of things to do in my work life. Paper works here and there. Doing everything like there's no tomorrow, and in the end I felt so exhausted. My tiredness even has reached to the summit that I decided to sleep and relax last weekend, leaving everything behind.
I guess, I should not feel guilty about giving myself some time to relax. I have the right to take care of myself, because if I will not do it, then nobody will. But then, the result of what I did seems like turning the opposite. I suddenly feel demotivated.
Just so you know earlier, I posted in noise.cash about how I am feeling lately. I have shared how demotivated I am in everything in life lately.
After I posted it, I felt relieved in someway. I have this feeling of gratefulness in my heart that I have a space where I could share what I feel. I'm feeling grateful that I am in an environment away from all the toxicity of life. I am grateful despite having this feeling of demotivation.
Now, minutes after I posted that, some of my friends such as Ruffa, Pachuchay, Lucifer and even Culle commented on my post. Their thoughts shared have paved the way for me to reflect on life.
What my friend @Lucifer01 has shared is something true. Nothing will happen if I allow myself to be demotivated for long. Aside from that being demotivated would not do something on my wallet and won't pump my Bitcoin Cash (BCH) in someway. Indeed, I should challenge my fate and work things out from this feeling that I am feeling.
Reading the thoughts from my friend @Pachuchay made me realized something and I might do this whenever I feel demotivated again or having writer's block in someway. Might check some prompts available though. Well, thanks my friend for this!
I'm grateful as well for this reminder from my friend @Ruffa . I presume we all feel demotivated everyday, but we have the choice to stay demotivated or to work things out. And I'm proud to this friend of mine and might do what she's doing. This has awakened my mind to do more in life even if the path seems so dull.
I also appreciate these reminders from my friend Culle. I think it's been a long time since the last time I visited a place where I feel at peace; a place where I can unwind. This is also a reminder for me to give myself sometime to have some fun or to visit places that's good for my well-being, away from all the toxic things in life.
You see, I'm so thankful for these thoughts that my friends have shared in noise.cash. They're not just comment, but they have given thoughts for me to ponder. They have helped me in so much ways.
Conclusion
Being demotivated in life is inevitable, but we always have a choice. Be it to embrace being demotivated in life, or make a decision to do something to light the candle of motivation.
You see, it's not easy to feel demotivated. It's not easy to go with the flow on being demotivated. But let's just be grateful for the people or even events that God will use as instruments to lighten our path anew.
How about you? When was the last time you felt demotivated and what did you do remove that feeling of demotivation at that moment?

I am demotivated this days for some reasons I can't even understand myself.
